Rib, Oblique and Hip Pain

Rib or Oblique Pain in One Location

U-set: The round 2″ diameter primary electrode is placed directly over the location that the pain presents, for example over the rib or oblique. This electrode can treat a single pain location up to about 3″ in diameter.

The very large rectangular secondary electrode is placed horizontally across the lumbar area which is a convenient and very comfortable place to receive stimulation. This large electrode secondary is so large in area, the density of the electrical field is so low, that there is no treatment effect; this electrode acts just as a dispersive electrode to complete the circuit. There is no maximum distance between the electrodes.

Warning: Electrodes must not touch each other.

Hip Pain in One Location

U-set: The round 2″ diameter primary electrode is placed directly over the location that the pain presents, for example on the hip. This electrode can treat a single pain location up to about 3″ in diameter.

The very large rectangular secondary electrode is placed horizontally across the lumbar area which is a convenient and very comfortable place to receive stimulation. This large secondary electrode is so large in area, the density of the electrical field is so low, that there is no treatment effect; this electrode acts just as a dispersive electrode to complete the circuit. There is no maximum distance between the electrodes.

Hip Pain in Two Locations

B-set: Two same sized round Primary Electrodes are used for two locations of pain that are similar in magnitude. For example, one electrode may be placed on the lateral side of the hip and one electrode may be placed over the anterior of the hip if pain presents in both of these locations. ​
